    ABSTRACT The aim of this article is to demonstrate how reflective practices can enable change to be better managed by business leaders and organizations. The paper is positioned within recent and significant developments in the field of learning through reflection. These developments have given rise to puzzles and challenges, but also some opportunities. We address one of these opportunities for the better management of change, namely the use of applied positive psychology and its relationship with the practices of reflection. A sporting cameo of a ‘team in turmoil’ provides a comparative analysis of three possible change management strategies to revive the fortunes of the team. The three strategies focus on: (a) Deficit-reduction, trouble-shooting and fixing problems; (b) Using ‘traditional’ and often borrowed reflective models and cycles and (c) Managing change through enhancing positivity and using strengths-based reflective practices. Here the power of two core ideas from positive psychology and their application to change management are presented. These are the primacy of the positive and the focus on the use of human strengths. The paper concludes with reference to the work of an elite coach managing within a high performance organization and who has applied some of the principles and processes outlined in this paper, to manage change within the demanding, pressurized and ever changing environment of elite sport. Ultimately this article aims to present applied concepts of reflective practice, grounded in the relatively new field of positive psychology, to enable business leaders and organizations to more effectively manage change.

    Reflective practice is fundamental to any paramedics development. This text has been written especially for student paramedics in university and paramedics who have undertaken university education. The underlying philosophy of this text is one of making reflection accessible and easy to understand whilst maintaining an appropriate academic level. This book will allow you to develop the underpinning knowledge required to complete reflection effectively and consistently. It contains and explains many different models of reflection, utilising a number of true to life examples to demonstrate the characteristics of each model. These models and examples will allow you to select the most appropriate reflective framework for your needs.

    Imagine that you get such certain awesome experience and knowledge by only reading a book. How can? It seems to be greater when a book can be the best thing to discover. Books now will appear in printed and soft file collection. One of them is this book reflection principles and practice for healthcare professionals. It is so usual with the printed books. However, many people sometimes have no space to bring the book for them; this is why they can't read the book wherever they want.

    ABSTRACT This paper is a call to action which describes, explains and then justifies why a shift from a pedagogy of scarcity to a pedagogy of abundance is necessary in coach education. It begins by (re)establishing the crucial links between emotions, thoughts and then actions. This is then taken further with an explication of how currently reflective practices in sports coaching and education could be called a pedagogy of scarcity. We argue that this is characterised by an anaemic and skeletal conception of reflection and its practices which gives rise to two consequences: (1) a sense of placelessness; (2) borrowing practices. The second half of the paper presents a counterpoint which is a pedagogy of abundance. This has four characteristics: (1) a less myopic and more expansive view of the practices of reflection; (2) a greater focus on identifying and then building the strengths, gifts and talents of coaches; (3) a move away from a predilection of paper-and-pencil type reflective tools; and (4) recasting the process of ‘shared learning’ to positively utilise the benefits of modern information and communication technologies in learning through reflection. We attempt to make the case that utilising the benefits of a pedagogy of abundance brings with it an opportunity for coaches and coach education to create new spaces for reflection, performative action, intervention and perhaps transformation in the run-up to Rio 2016.

    This book argues that the reflective process is at the heart of effective clinical supervision and sets out to do four things: to review the most up-to-date literature on clinical supervision; to make the case that the reflective conversation is the centrepiece of the process; to show how clinical supervision can be enhanced through critical reflective practice; and to present a generic and holistic model of supervision. The book highlights the negotiation, mutual understanding and empathy skills needed by both supervisor and supervisees. The readership includes: nursing students, general nurses, specialist nurses, supervisors, managers.

That the what, how and why of reflective practices can be adequately described, explained and justified, ethically. Of course we might embrace this challenge in many ways. One suggestion is that, through this journal, we try to ‘locate’ our ethical judgements, decisions and actions in forms of language that reveal what’s truly important when we say we are ‘doing’ reflective practice or we ‘are’ a reflective practitioner. But these forms of language need to carry the potential to be understood by others. The point being that if we cannot make ourselves understood widely, our contribution to the debate and the impact we may have is diminished. Another suggestion is that we take a look at one kind of reflective practice (e.g., the writing of a reflective portfolio) and ask ourselves the question, ‘How far is this particular kind of reflective practice ethical?’ And if we do this, to see what learning emerges. One reason for this suggestion this is that in the period, 2004–2006, as Editor of this journal, I have received more papers about reflective portfolios, of one kind or another (including log books, diaries, journals), than about any other kind of reflective account. As I’ve looked back over the content of these papers, I have come to appreciate that we could have deepened our understanding of this practice, with an explicit and sustained ethical analysis of it. I want to invite you to share your ‘ethical perspectives’ on the practice of building and assessing a reflective portfolio. My hope is that an ethical analysis might lead to even better ethical action. To begin an exploration of this, I am going to keep the paper rooted in the world of the award-bearing course, where university staff require students to keep and present, for assessment, a reflective portfolio. So you might say, I am focusing on ‘applied ethics’. Every reflective portfolio has the potential to contain a plethora of ethical issues. For example about rights-to-autonomy, confidentiality, anonymity, privacy and dignity, scarce resource distribution, professional competence, inter-personal conflicts, fairness, conflicting loyalties, discipline and encroachments on personal liberty.
